Resuming the violin project (ii)

As noted, I pretty much left off violin construction at the end of last year's workshop. This was the status quo:The back was glued to the sides, and the top was finished but not attached. The neck and scroll existed only as a cut-out blank, fresh from the band saw and drill press.

The main agenda for me in Claremona this year was the scroll. It's buried somewhere in that lump of wood, and my job was to dig it out.
